good morning guys
it is 5 15 a.m
it's just about getting light i've just
woken up as you can probably see
by my hair good morning welcome to
another vlog it's way too early
um we are doing something a little bit
different this morning we need to go
to the new condo we need to check on a
little bit of the progress i mean we
don't need to do it this early but we
thought
get up get on with the day we've been
moaning about not getting up early
enough so we thought right
5 a.m alarms let's do it let's get up
there's a few things we need to do we
need to drop a few things off there we
need to take a few measurements for some
potential new furniture
and and we also need to check in on the
progress of the small repairs that's
going on
we may even catch a little bit of
sunrise on our balcony we're going to
grab a coffee and take it over with us
let's go
[Music]
i have missed jose so much
yes
[Music]
wow
[Music]
here we are
[Music]
how many times have we walked in here
empty so dusty
hopefully soon wow it is dusty really
dusty
okay so they've been in sunrise
oh beautiful oh the morning plane
wow that's so nice yes guys we have just
about
caught a little bit of a cloudy sunrise
okay
so hopefully this will be one of the
last times that we're actually coming in
here
and seeing it so bare and echoey echoey
echoey
and empty where she bought the air
conditioning remotes with us this time
and it gets so warm in here especially
in the morning because of the sunrise
well this is the first time we've been
here at this early in the morning yeah
and that that morning light is lovely i
mean it is a little bit cloudy
i was hoping it would be a little bit
more golden um but i'm sure we'll have
to we'll have to wait for that one but
i'm sure it will happen at some point
table and chairs are still there it's
amazing actually to look over oh wow
look at that
to look over at the mountains in that
kind of morning glow
and the laguna lake
wow every time i come here that view
gets better and better so yeah as you
saw or maybe you didn't
in the last vlog we went around we went
around with a fine tooth comb really and
megaworld encouraged us to do that
before we accepted the unit we had like
a checklist to go through for any
fine minor details so paint splashes
any cracks and tiles any scratches on
windows
any inconsistencies with the kitchen
work surface
cupboards not closing properly cupboards
not aligned
light switches like for example have
they done this yet
i think they've done that maybe so for
example one of these
this wasn't level with this before soon
we'll be making the morning coffee
in this spot yeah super dusty in here so
the guys the team have been in
and done most of the work but there's
still a few little stickers where we
marked things so i don't think
all the work is fully done but we're
getting there we do not have a date
for when the work should be totally
finished we're not going to share that
because
mainly we don't want to get our hopes up
because you never know could be delayed
ecq's lockdown stuff like that
you never know as the beatles said here
comes the sun
you can see the morning glow on us
okay let's have our coffee on the
balcony
this is a glimpse at the new morning
routine when we actually move here
true do we get locked out will we
oh you know we've come out early so it's
not too hot
this is the life this is nice our little
table and chairs are still here
and this is officially the first
morning coffee on the new balcony
[Music]
cheers
[Music]
this makes us so happy this is really
really satisfying
coming out here and this is the first of
many
first of many guys soon we will be in
this place full time and we're going to
get to do this
every day the balcony is so much bigger
i feel like we're really actually going
to use this balcony we want to transform
this outdoor space if anyone's
good with outdoor space if anyone has
experience if anyone's done anything
on their balcony to make it look a
little bit nicer a bit more
um relaxing but we kind of want some
plants out here we might even get that
flooring
that gives it that wooden decking effect
might even get some more comfier chairs
i don't know a little sofa in the corner
or something
i think we've both waited for this
moment for a long time well it's been
like an hour since we woke up we've
waited for this for ages
it's been over an hour now what i mean
is that what i mean
what i mean is that we this has been a
long time coming really to actually
moving in here
i think it was before christmas that we
were kind of look starting to look and
consider i can't remember the timeline
you guys probably know better than me
we've tried to document as much of the
journey as possible
look how big this balcony is lucy is so
far away right now
it's huge it really is huge and we're
being treated to a
pretty good manila sunrise this morning
won't lie we've seen better we have seen
better but it is a little bit cloudy
ah the weather checks are going to be
epic here it is a little hazy actually
and it looks quite cool because we've
got the view of laguna lake
and there's like little smoke things i
don't know if it's people cooking can
you see that there's a little
smokey
no she means somewhere around here it
looks like people are having barbecues
or something or what could it be i don't
know like burning something
you know this golden light this is like
the first golden hour of the day
we don't normally see this one we
sometimes see the next one it's
amplified by the fact that it's like
orangey peachy walls because it's like a
building at mckinley but right by venice
mall
and the whole like theme here is a
venetian look
all the buildings here are this kind of
orangey color which
at first i wasn't sure i liked but now
that we're here
there's something quite satisfying and
very european-y about it especially with
this table and this like um what's it
called like a
fence barrier style of style of balcony
barrier barrier though it's not like you
can't get that obviously you can't get
there
what is it i don't know what this is a
wall no a gate no
a fence no but yeah i think it's quite
charming and it's quite
it feels quite cozy and cute i don't
know it's very nice we've already been
here in the evening time we know that
when the sun sets this way
we can firstly see it through this
little guy were we vlogging yeah we were
i can't remember i think
and the sun set comes from this side
here and then we get like the golden
light on this whole thing so the view
looks beautiful at sunset
but then in sunrise we we are the golden
view because it's like flipped around
so super super nice it's definitely
going to get warm here in the morning
see in the evening yeah
it's still cool now it's probably more
likely that we'll spend
early morning here and then like um
afternoon to evening time will be fine
but i reckon
in like an hour or two i think it's
going to be way too hot to sell her
because it's already getting warmer um
and it's alright sunlight but we'll be
in
we'll have we can have the ac on and we
can enjoy the view from inside but
it's going to be so weird that having a
new routine going to a different
cupboard to get the mugs out for
coffee and like adjusting to that but we
can't wait we're very excited for it
[Music]
so our paint samples is still up on this
wall actually you didn't actually do
enough coats really to be able to
properly see it because you can see
now that it's dried it's actually a
little bit see-through
i am still swaying towards b
it's really hard to show it on camera ah
that's better that's better
so in person i've made it brighter so
you can see the shades more in person
it's darker in person it's more like
that's more accurate to person but so
you can see it the difference is this is
tiny bit more this is a tiny bit more
gray bluey
and i feel like it would sometimes look
just like a gray warm we have that now
we don't really just want a gray wall
uh this one's a bit too greeny and i
think this one's just really nice in the
middle
uh it's like kind of like a pine tree
kind of green color
and i think that's my favorite what's
yours
uh i think the green one
i actually want to know hey on a serious
note and i wasn't listening to that so i
don't know what you just said
so i'm not going to go along with you
is this really controversial i might be
going off green
really how about bloom i just feel like
green will go way better
with the plants and stuff in that case
i'm leaning more towards
this one or this one but i feel like
this too dark are you going to the
middle
well we all know who's going to get
there why don't we
so whilst we're here guys we will
quickly tell you about a little bit of a
change of plan
from for the design of this place if you
saw our
original ideas we were gonna have over
here
we're gonna have our tv on that wall and
a desk
kind of here but now we're thinking and
we had this idea and then mike also
mentioned it as well
that we could put a desk
here whole space so there'd be a few
benefits to that
first one being glare if we had it
against that window i think we'd get
headaches
or have to just keep that lying down all
the time um
because we were looking into the light
and we'd be trying to kind of focus our
eyes so
this is already kind of darker to edit
where you need it to be
if we want to stream we could build in
some sort of lighting
and ring lights and things that it is
bright enough to stream potentially
wall mounted monitors yeah and we could
have maybe even a double desk going
along
a lamp of some sort um yeah it's
probably
there's definitely room for two desks
here or we just have one big deck yeah
otherwise
otherwise this whole area it's almost
wasted because all you would put as a
bench or
for shoes or something but there's such
a such a big space it's actually
a third of the way into the apartment
already so we need to use it
to make it look nice if we did that it
would actually just be there to make it
look nice if we did that
and this will be much more practical and
it also means
that then there wouldn't be a desk
looking
a bit random in the corner here
because then it would be like imagine if
you have double monitors just here on
the desk
and the tv it's quite screamy and techy
uh less cozy less homely and i mean
we're still not 100
but i think i'm swaying more towards
that now and then also we'd have more
space i mean we could have like a gaming
type chair as well
that george you please it won't be like
ugly in the middle of the room
and wait did you guys hear that i'm
putting that out on the record now lucia
said on video
that we can get a gaming chair yeah
yes boys yes boys and girls ergonomic
office gaming chair no i've got the one
in mind is it red and black
it is very affordable how much
thousand pesos pounds no chance
absolutely no sharks that's putting a
thousand pounds on a chair
one well you can fly with a thousand
pounds yeah a chair
a gaming chair um i think this will be
so
nice right for a dining table
to the scene daffodils no effort can you
i can't wait for there to be not an echo
in here
um this is making me think of daffodils
same you know i look at this and think
of daffodils
i'm not is it how can you look everyone
you look at that you think daffodil how
can you not
all right well you need to go yeah also
this is
this is a nice feature at the moment
we're now considering having the bed
this way instead correct because then we
get a big event if we have a bed here
we can fit a queen size of two bedside
tables
but we can't fit king's eyes without it
being super tight and so hard to go
around the morning
yeah we have a king size we'll put it
here and then there's like space around
the edge
we can sit here and wake up in the
morning and be like
we can leave this door open i'm still
acting
walk around excuse me the beds here i
need to get around yeah yeah yeah
walk out make a coffee
[Applause]
yeah is this where the coffee machine is
going to be
actually i think it's going to go there
realistically there's no plugs here okay
true
yeah i mean wherever it fits i think it
makes more sense
because then it's like solid it would be
nice to look at that
i think or we could have it
we could literally have it here and
make it make this whole purely
about coffee oh
yeah great idea where am i gonna cook
it's fine for you having this for a
coffee area
i know i've got it food panda
seriously that's not happening this is
like the most space i've ever had to
cook with and i'm using it to cook
i'm gonna have vegetables all over the
surface i'm not having a coffee machine
here
okay fair enough see we've had a time to
think about a few little changes that we
want to make and stuff
to be honest with you just excited to
get in and get going
and to make some vlogs here we we
documented our very first
time moving into our flat back in our
hometown in the uk
we look very very different we look
younger which is kind of scary
kind of sad but we look healthier now um
and then we of course documented moving
into our second place this is the third
place that we've lived in together now
the apartment you guys know very well
that we're currently renting
vlogs moving into there our whole life
for the last few years is documented on
this channel so
of course we're going to do the same
with this place excited to bring you
guys along there's something i've got
with us today that's incredibly
important to the new condo
and you're going to be pleased i bought
this here ready
oh what is it yes because
if we're in and out here and we need the
toilet i don't want to be left with no
loot roll
so wow you think of everything don't you
i'm going to leave this here
and we'll still come back and all the
workers have just used it well lucy
